Rod Stewart Cover- I was only Joking

  I really enjoyed this project. This one was a favorite of mine as a kid and I think it still holds up well. It was fun covering this. The two solo's were a real blast to learn and track. Comments and critique always welcome. Mark http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11301010

    Mark, How ya doin man? Don't see around TOOP much anymore, and was wonderin how you are. This is one of my favorites. I thought of covering this, and man I'm glad I didn't. You absolutely killed it. Great cover. How's your golf game and your health?

    Thanks everyone. Very kind comments that are much appreciated. Randy, how are you my friend? I have not been hitting the golf-ball too much but I do manage to get out each month for at least a round. I am a General Manager of an extended stay type Hotel in Vegas so you can be sure I am pretty busy with all that the job requires. My health is good, I have the issues under control and am living healthier. Not sure if you knew what exactly went on but as you can imagine I would rather share this info in an email or similar. This clearly isn't the place for me to be boring everyone with my health issues. :) Hope all is well with you .... Cheers Mark

     I like Rod Stewart anyway, so it isn't hard to like this tune. You even captured the essence of that gritty Rod sound. Nice job!

    What's not to like? I like the vox better than Rod's.

    Hi Mark. This is fantastic. You obviously cover Rod more than well and the music is performed and recorded excellently. Also I saw Vinnie Moore listed as one of your heroes. He's one of my all time favorite guitarists. Time Odyssey still floors me after all these years. I had to listen to Summer Song and a few snippets of the others on you page. Man, you are a seriously talented guitarist. Merry Christmas.

      Thanks very much everybody. I appreciate the kind words. rhynosynth: I love Vinnie Moore. I have covered 2 songs from Time Odyssey; April Sky and Morning Star. Morning Star has yet to be completed due to the fact that I have not mastered the solo. I have the rest of it fairly well down though. I need to upload my April Sky. Thanks again
